#Gadgets: The World’s most secure Private Messenger launches

Stargram Global has announced the launch of ‘mit messenger’, the most private and secure messenger on the market.

The name ‘mit’ means ‘together’ in German. The app brings people all over the world together while ensuring their chat privacy with 100% confidence.

Developed as a full service messenger app with the goal of enhancing user convenience, such as coin settlement and free / busy service transactions, with an emphasis on confidentiality of membership information and securing messages between recipients; mit messenger uses a peer-to-peer (P2P) concept that does not store conversation contents or files on a server and functions. At the time of subscribing, members can use a simple mobile phone authentication procedure without the app requesting additional confidential information.

Users can also delete conversations that they do not wish to leave on recipients’ phones through the ‘Disappearing Messages’ feature. The message disappears on both devices at a user-defined interval, from 5 seconds to 1 week, after the recipient reads the message. ‘Lifetime use’ numbers will be issued free of charge to prevent mobile phone numbers from being exposed. It will be possible to open a super group room where up to 110,000 people can chat in it.

The lossless voice and video data recovery technology delivers HD/VoLTE quality calls with high sound quality. The ability to make high quality calls for 7 minutes while consuming only 1MB of data is also a powerful feature of the app.

In addition, it will be equipped with an e-payment system, a streaming service for Stargram’s Bingo music, and a shared economic platform through the expansion of messenger-based merchants and applications.

Published

on

Samsung Electronics East Africa has entered into a partnership with Kenya’s home appliances store, Housewife’s Paradise, to commence the collection of e-waste for recycling aimed at providing a joint-effort on environmental conservation.

According to Samsung East African Head of Service Division, Ronald Mitei, the collection of e-waste would begin in Nairobi before scaling to the rest of the country by the end of the year.

Under the e-waste management program, Housewife’s Paradise will collect Samsung brand-only e-waste at a customer’s preferred time and date, with the waste delivered to WEEE Centre, the official Samsung recycling partner in Kenya and then be discarded.

“We have been dedicated to responsible e-waste management for the last few years and we now want to scale it up to ensure that we minimize any negative environmental impact of our products,” Mitei said.

“This includes taking responsibility for the end-of-life phase of our products to prevent environmental harm. Our e-waste program and recycling program are an important part of this commitment,” he added while addressing a press conference on Tuesday.

Samsung Electronics is strongly committed to proper e-waste disposal and we believe in safeguarding our environment through responsible disposal and recycling of electronic waste, transforming it from being hazardous to beneficial.

“Working together with our partners, we can ensure that waste is not just discarded, but transformed into reusable materials.

“This collaboration embodies our shared dedication to sustainable practices, conservation, and the health of our planet,” Mitei added.

Also speaking during the press conference, Managing Director of Housewife’s Paradise, Zul Jamal, said:

“As a responsible home appliance retailer, we understand the importance of proper e-waste disposal.

“It’s not just about selling new appliances; it is also about ensuring that the old ones are retired in a way that is safe for our environment.

“That is why we are devoted to providing our customers with easy access to responsible recycling options, and encouraging the sustainable disposal of electronic products.”
